Is there a way to use the pads on the Roland TR-8 to control the sequencer on the Redrum?
I'm looking to use the sounds in the ReDrum and program it on the fly using theTR-8 as a controller, without having to use my mouse.
Thanks,
Ray

For controlling Redrum I'd recommend an Arturia Spark or Spark LE. I have Remote codecs for these devices that I'm happy to share. They have 1-16 x0x style programming buttons that can be mapped to Redrum's step sequencer.

I have a Spark LE and would be very interested in getting one of those Remote codecs. Thanks.

Here you go. There are two sets of files here: Install both. It will show a yellow warning triangle but everything will work fine.

The advantage of this is that you can lock the sequencer to one device (Redrum for instance) and the instrument section to another (ABL3 or a Combinator for instance).

The mappings are fairly basic at the moment, but you can add your own.

Fantastic. I downloaded it, installed it, and it is working quite nicely. Yeah, they are very basic but that works for me right now. In the future, I might adjust some of mappings but as is, it is perfect. Thanks.
